As the chief webmaster of paklinks, I must respond publically to the emails I have received from lesequin.
Please see the following and read my commentary below.

Hello, This email is meant to be for the administrator of this forum. Unlike bargello, fashionveer and indusmart, LeSequin is an established business, we are very aggressive about our quality and customer service, to an extent that all our products are delivered with a warranty card, which gurantees full refund incase of a faulty good. Your moderator and some members are affiliating us with fashionveer, we are our own company and have nothing to do with any online boutique, if the threads/posts arent deleted we will take serious legal action earlier we were presented with an online petition to sign against paklinks.com but we refused cause we like to mind our own business but now this is just ridiculous. We have a strong legal department and we will sue for defamation if your moderator/guests dont stop linking us to fashionveer. If the posts arent deleted within 2 days our legal department will be contacting you.
Regards,
The LeSequin Team

I will post this on the board to clarify your position. Our members are entitled to their opinions. Your tone is threatening and I wont respond to it.

It's not about teh tone being threatyening, you people should have some limitations, members should not eb allowed to just be able to accuse anyone of anything... especially your moderators. If people come online and they have something to say they should have enough proof to back it. Secondly I would like to tell you that the woman/man posting about some dress they ordered from me in pink with gold embroidery, we dont have that order, also I would like to say that we added the saree collection way after all dresses and nobody has ordered a saree from us yet, in the history of the company therefore the woman/man posting that they ordered a saree from us and it was alrite is also not legit!

2000 shops in every city are copying the same dress design accurately that you cant tell the difference. Dont let this go to court cause eventhough this is a public forum but we have a very strong case as we know who we are and initially all this was started by your moderator shay9164 something she insisted that we are the new fashionveer. So let me what it's going to be. OUT OF COURT OR INSIDE?

You have very frustrated members they come here to rant, that's all they do, they dont care if in the process they ruin other peoples businesses/lives. It's your fault! You ahve given them teh permission to do so! We have been presented by an online petition to close down paklinks many time but we chose to stay away from it, believe me the petition has some big designer/make up artist names. Half of thestories people tell in here are fake, lies, nonsense and you let your members get away with it.
InshAllah Allah shall put one of you in such a place. InshAllah!

While I feel sympathetic any business who may be confused by someone else not doing so well, I find it hard to accept the rude and threatening comments being made towards this public site and our moderators. Our moderators are not part of the management and they dont have any official agenda. They are entitled to their opinions as much as the general public and visitors of this site. The moderators are chosen among the most regulars and those who have an extra ordinary ability to facilitate and moderate the discussions.
This is a public opinion website. We do not have the capacity or desire to independently verify or deny the claims made by the users. Like all top boards, we let the members sort it out among themselves. All we do is make sure that each party has a reasonable and civilized opportunity to respond and debate.
I feel that the threatening tones have gone too far for our moderators and its time for me and my legal team to step in. I have been advised by our attorneys to disable any nicks participating with threatening or legal actions posted on the web board. The same posts will be printed and supplied to the attorneys for further action. Gupshup remains well protected entity under its nature of business.
